===> The following configuration options are available for splix-2.0.0_9:
BLACKOPTIM=on: Enable black correction algorithm
JBIG=on: Enable use of JBIG algorithm (pattented)
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
Installation of the color profile for color printers:
Color printers needs color profile files to get better results. These
files are provided by your printer manufacturer and you have to install them
manually. To do that, download the linux official drivers and locate the "cms"
directory. Install them with the command:
# make installcms CMSDIR=/path/to/cms/directory \
MANUFACTURER=samsung or xerox or dell
Samsung color profile files are available at:
(Then use MANUFACTURER=samsung)

If upgrading
If you are upgrading your current version, you MUST delete
your printer in the CUPS interface and install it again. This
operation MUST be done since CUPS make a copy of the PPD file and
this file is modified between versions.

Cleanup $() variables in ports Makefiles.
Mostly replace with ${}, but sometime, replace with $$() because it is
what was intended in the first place. (I think.)

- Update security/gnutls to 3.4.10.
- Rename the LIBDANE option DANE because that's the name of the protocol
supported by libgnutls-dane and gnutls-cli. Also clarify the option
description.
- Add an IDN option.
- libgnutls-openssl has been removed in 3.4. Some ports used this library
in their LIB_DEPENDS but no port actually required it.
- Some old API functions have been removed. Ports that used these have been
updated or patched to use the new API.
- Add a patch to print/cups to prevent overlinking of libgnutls.so.
- Bump PORTREVISION on dependent ports.
net-im/jabber: This port used the old API to give users fine grained
control over which crypto algorithms were used via a configuration file.
It's not immediately obvious how to port this to the new API so the port
always uses the defaults now.
www/hydra: Mark BROKEN. This uses more removed calls than the other ports,
is said to be alpha quality and not fully functional and has been abandoned
10 years ago.

Combine print/cups-base, print/cups-client and print/cups-image into
print/cups and update it to 2.1.3. Also remove print/cups-pstoraster,
improve print/cups-filters, print/foomatic-* and update print/hplip to
3.16.2.
Long description:
First some background. When you hand a file to cups it sets up a chain of
filter programs that converts the file to something a printer understands.
Each filter has a cost associated with it and cups tries to find the
cheapest chain. Costs used to be configured in such a way that files were
first converted to PostScript. This could then be manipulated further (e.g.
putting multiple pages on one sheet) before finally being sent to a
PostScript printer or another filter like pstoraster which produces a raster
format understood by non-PostScript printer drivers. Nowadays most filters

- Add stage support [1]
- cups-image(1) is part of print/cups-image, so depend on that port
instead of on print/cups-base [1]
- Convert USE_GMAKE and USE_BZIP2 to their corresponding USES [1]
- Fix pkg-plist
- Use modern LIB_DEPENDS
- Add dependency on print/cups-client for cups-config(1) and correctly
reference it
- Bump PORTREVISION

- Convert all remaining instances of BUILD_DEPENDS=${RUN_DEPENDS} or
RUN_DEPENDS=${BUILD_DEPENDS} to use := which portlint has warned
about for a while.

Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).
